    Conductive carbon black (CCB) reinforced ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) polymers are investigated by micro-computed tomography, scanning electron microscope, and mechanical testing. The composites are manufactured by two techniques: compression molding (CM) and equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE). It is observed that electrical conductivity increases for the composites with the higher concentration of CCB inclusions without significant loss of tensile toughness. At the same time, ECAE procedure decreases the observed thickness of the CCB-rich layer and decreases electrical conductivity of the UHMWPE composites as compared to CM. Concentration of carbon inclusions in CCB-rich layer was evaluated for different weight fractions of CCB in the overall composite. Preliminary studies indicate that ECAE doesn’t change the orientation and elongation of UHMWPE particles in the CM consolidated composites.
